Study on Combustion Characteristics of Blended-coal

Coal Combustion and Combustion Products

A comprehensive study on the effect of moisture content on coal spontaneous combustion tendency

There are several phenomenons for polluting the environment, especially in coalfields; which coal spontaneous combustion is one of them. The moisture content is one of the intrinsic characteristics of coal, which has an important role in the occurrence of this phenomenon. Therefore, this research predicts the coal spontaneous combustion tendency based on moisture content. The percentage of mois...

Studying Relationship between Coal Intrinsic Characteristics in Spontaneous Combustion of Coal Potential Using Crossing Point Temperature Test Method

Spontaneous combustion of coal is one of the most horrifying hazards in coal industries, especially in underground coal mines. Thus having a prior knowledge about the occurrence of this phenomenon in underground coal mines is of crucial importance in preventing this process, loss of life, huge economic loss, and environmental pollution. The aim of this work is to determine the spontaneous combu...

Mercury from Coal Combustion

A 1997 study in Minnesota indicated a relationship between mercury deposition trends and regional coal combustion (as well as other possible sources) spanning a period of two centuries (Engstrom and Swain 1997). Sediment core sampling from rural lakes in eastern Minnesota indicated a growth in mercury deposited from the air since the first half of the 1800s, with the amount peaking in the 1960s...
